People with intellectual disabilities are often reported as having depressive symptoms. Although the antidepressant effect of exercise has been systematically recognized, research concerning the role of exercise on depressive symptoms in people with intellectual disabilities is still scant. A 12-wk. exercise intervention for depressive symptoms in a group of adults with intellectual disabilities was conducted. Participants were 16 men and 11 women, randomly assigned to an exercise group (n = 14) or to a control group (n = 13). The Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale adapted for people with intellectual disabilities was administered at baseline, after 6 wk. and at the end of the intervention. There were statistically significant reductions in scores for the exercise group compared with the control group. Results support the notion that exercise can improve well-being in people with intellectual disabilities.
据报道，智障人士常有抑郁症状。尽管运动的抗抑郁作用已得到系统认可，但关于运动对智障人士抑郁症状影响的研究仍很匮乏。对一组成年智障人士进行了为期12周的运动干预以改善抑郁症状。参与者包括16名男性和11名女性，随机分为运动组（n = 14）和对照组（n = 13）。在基线、6周后以及干预结束时，使用适用于智障人士的zung自评抑郁量表进行测评。与对照组相比，运动组的得分有统计学意义的降低。结果支持运动可改善智障人士幸福感这一观点。
